A Memorial of Honor | 4.26.26 | Pastor Poke

PODCAST DESCRIPTION A Memorial of HonorFlowing Truth | Honey Brook Baptist Church | Preached by Pastor Poke Shuler | April 26, 2026 What kind of story is your life telling? In Mark 14, a woman walks into a room carrying an alabaster box filled with precious ointment — and she breaks it. Not a little. Not carefully. She shatters it completely and pours every drop over the head of Jesus. The people around her were furious. They called it wasteful. But Jesus said something that has echoed across two thousand years: wherever this gospel is preached, what she has done will be spoken of as a memorial of her. Pastor Poke opens this passage with a searching question — not just about what we give, but about what our lives are actually pointing to. The alabaster box isn't the story. The oil isn't the story. She isn't the story. He is. And when you understand that, breaking the box isn't extreme. It's the only response that makes sense. This message walks through the honor of sacrifice, the cost of genuine commitment, and the long reach of a life surrendered to something — Someone — worth giving everything to. Pastor Poke weaves in the widow's two mites, the stories of his own parents, and the faithful men and women whose lives still speak long after they're gone. The memorial they left wasn't about them. It was about Jesus. What will yours be about? Honey Brook Baptist Church | Honey Brook, PA🎙️ Flowing Truth Podcast — available wherever you listen to podcasts📖 Scripture: Mark 14:1–9

Watch | 4.19.26 | Pastor Poke

Pastor Poke Shuler preaches through Mark 13 with one word on his mind: watch. It starts with a disciple marveling at the stones of the temple — massive, hand-hewn, perfectly fitted. Jesus looks at him and says not one of them will be left standing. From there, four disciples pull Jesus aside privately and ask what every believer eventually asks: when, where, how? And Jesus does what he always does — he tells them the truth. All of it. Two thousand years of it, compressed into a handful of verses. Pastor Poke walks through the wonder of watching, the warning not to be deceived by what looks right on the outside, the weight of the sorrows to come, and why watching without worshiping is just anxiety with good intentions. Jesus didn't end his message with a timeline or a prophecy chart. He ended it with one word, said to all: watch. Are you watching? Or have you been roaming?

"But Teachest The Way Of God In Truth" | 4.12.26| Pastor Poke

Pastor Poke Shuler preaches through Mark 12 on what it looks like to live and give in truth. Using four encounters Jesus has — with the Pharisees and Herodians, the Sadducees, a searching scribe, and a poor widow — he works through what truth actually does to a person when they let it in. Truth shapes our attitude. It brings awareness of things we'd rather avoid. It defines us by how we respond when we hear it. And at the end of the day, it shows up in how we give — not just financially, but in how much of ourselves we're actually handing over to God. The widow didn't give much by anyone's standard. But she gave in truth, and that made it worth more than everything thrown in before her. Truth has a way of turning the world's math upside down.

Declaration Of Good News | 4.5.26 | Pastor Poke

What is the gospel, really? On this Easter Sunday message from 1 Corinthians 15, Pastor Poke works through what Paul calls "the declaration of good news" — the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. This isn't just history. It's the power of God unto salvation, and it changes everything about how we live, who we are, and what happens when we die. He walks through four things Paul shows us about the gospel: it's declared with spirit and conviction, it's proven according to the Scriptures with hundreds of eyewitnesses, it's defended against those who deny the resurrection, and it has real power — over sin, over death, and into eternity. If you've never called on the name of the Lord, this one's for you. And if you have — this is a reminder of what you're standing in.

The Observation Of Marvelous | 3.29.26 | Pastor Poke

The Observation Of Marvelous | Pastor Poke | 3.29.26 In Mark 12, Jesus tells the parable of the wicked husbandmen — a vineyard owner who sends servant after servant to collect what's owed, only to have them beaten, wounded, and killed. And then, knowing what they'll do, he sends his own son. Why would anyone send what's most precious to those who are most wicked? Unless he loves them. In this message, Pastor Poke walks through the parable to uncover what it reveals about God's heart — his will for the church, the opposition we face when we labor for him, and the marvelous grace that keeps sending even when people keep rejecting. Jesus quotes Psalm 118 to point to himself as the stone the builders rejected — the cornerstone everything else is built upon. The question isn't just what the Pharisees did with the vineyard. It's what we're doing with ours. Flowing Truth is the sermon podcast of The Brook. New messages release weekly.

Christ's Confounded Authority | 3.22.26 | Pastor Poke Shuler

What happens when the truth is right in front of you — and you reason your way around it anyway? This week's message, Christ's Confounding Authority, takes us to Mark 11:27–33, where Jesus silences his accusers not by overpowering them, but by asking one question they couldn't honestly answer. The chief priests and elders had seen the miracles. They'd heard the testimony. They had every reason to believe — and chose denial instead. We walk through what it looks like to recognize Christ's authority, reason through it honestly, and either submit or reject it. The scribes chose rejection. The question is: what are we choosing? This closes out our four-week study through Mark 11.

Contending (Asserting Or Professing) Authority | 3.15.26 | Poke Shuler

Description: What does it really look like to walk in the authority God has given us? In this message from Mark 11:19–26, we dig into what Jesus revealed to His disciples after the fig tree withered — and what it means for how we pray, believe, and live today. Faith isn't passive. It's a posture. It's a profession. And according to Jesus, it has real results. We walk through four pillars of faith that every believer needs: the Proof of faith, the Profession of faith, the Persuasion of faith, and the Possession of faith — and we close with the one posture that either makes or breaks it all: humility. If you've ever found yourself being your own worst enemy in prayer — doubting, withholding forgiveness, or standing before God with your head high instead of your heart open — this message is for you. "Have faith in God." — Mark 11:22 Topics covered: The withered fig tree and what the disciples actually sawWhat "doubt in your heart" really means — and why it's self-oppositionSpeaking to mountains: what Jesus was really talking aboutWhy forgiveness and faith are inseparableThe difference between bold prayer and prideful prayer

Christ's Commanding Authority | 3.8.26 | Pastor Poke Shuler

Christ’s Commanding Authority | Mark 11:11–18 In Mark chapter 11 we see Jesus display His commanding authority through three powerful moments: examining the temple, confronting the fruitless fig tree, and cleansing the house of God. These events reveal how Christ not only possesses authority but actively exercises it over His people, His house, and our lives. This message explores three truths revealed in this passage: 1. His Examination (v.11)Jesus entered the temple and “looked about upon all things.” Nothing escaped His attention. In the same way, Christ examines every area of our lives, our motives, our worship, and our obedience. 2. His Expectation (v.12–13)The fig tree had leaves but no fruit. It appeared productive but offered nothing. God expects more than profession—He expects fruit that reflects genuine faith. 3. His Expurgation (v.14–18)Jesus cleansed the temple, removing corruption and restoring its purpose as a house of prayer. When Christ exercises authority, He purges what does not belong and restores what should be. Christ examines. Christ expects. Christ cleanses. The question for every believer is simple: Are we merely displaying leaves, or are we producing fruit?

Three Wooden Crosses| 2.22.26 | Kevin Markham

In this message from The Brook, we’re taken to Calvary and confronted with the reality of the three crosses in Luke 23. At the center hangs Jesus Christ on the cross of redemption, suffering not for His own sin, but for the sins of the world. On either side hang two criminals—one on the cross of reception, and one on the cross of rejection. Though both men are equally guilty and equally close to Christ, their responses could not be more different. One humbles himself, acknowledges Christ’s innocence, and calls on Him for salvation. The other mocks, resists, and dies rejecting the very grace offered to him. This message presses the unavoidable truth that every person must respond to Christ—and that response determines eternity. This sermon challenges both believers and unbelievers to look again at the cross: not as a symbol we pass over, but as the defining moment of history that demands a personal response. No one escapes the question—will you receive Christ, or reject Him?

A Red Sea Experience | 3.1.26 | Nathan Little

What do you do when the way forward doesn’t make sense, the enemy is closing in, and there’s nowhere left to run? In this message from Exodus 13–14, we walk through what it truly means to face a Red Sea experience—those moments when God leads us into places we would never choose, but He knows we must walk through. This sermon traces the emotional and spiritual journey of Israel as they leave Egypt and find themselves trapped between the Red Sea and Pharaoh’s army. Along the way, we uncover: The purpose in the path — why God sometimes chooses the longer, harder road The peril in the path — when fear is real and the enemy feels within reach The pronouncement in the path — “Fear not. Stand still. See the salvation of the Lord.” God’s protection in the darkest hour — when He steps between you and the enemy The patience required — waiting all night while God works The progress that requires faith — stepping forward into the impossible The proclamation at the end — a testimony that can only come after the trial This isn’t just a story about the Red Sea—it’s about your Red Sea. The moments when you question God, feel abandoned, or wonder why obedience led you here. If life feels like it’s collapsing… If the enemy feels closer than ever… If you’re standing still, waiting on God to move— This message reminds us: God has a plan, He has your back, and He still makes a way where there is none. “Stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord.”

Do You Question God's Commands?

In this message from The Brook, we’re in Mark 11, where the religious leaders confront Jesus with a pointed challenge: “By what authority doest thou these things?” As Jesus answers their question with a question of His own, we see how unbelief often isn’t a lack of information but a refusal to submit. This sermon presses the heart issue behind the confrontation: will we recognize Christ’s authority, or will we try to keep control? It’s a call to honesty, repentance, and a life surrendered to the One whose authority is not borrowed, debated, or voted on but established by God. “O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee…” — Psalm 63:1 (KJV)
